[QUOTE=Phordphan; 1419801]Here's an interesting take:

[url]http://msna.biz/tax-on-monthly-pension[/url]

According to this guy, ostensibly a Thai accountant, pensions, etc, are taxable only if they are earned and brought into Thailand in the same year. So, he offers a workaround. Interesting.[/QUOTE]I've come across several online tax professional sites that have said the same thing. I suggest it is their correct interpretation of the following portion of section 41 of the Thai tax law:

"A resident of Thailand who in the previous tax year derived assessable income under Section 40 from an employment or from business carried on abroad or from a property situated abroad shall, upon bringing such assessable income into Thailand, pay tax in accordance with the provisions of this Part."

So where does that leave the guys who bring into LOS 800, 000 baht all at once for a Thai retirement visa?

If the Thai tax authorities are not interested in pursuing taxing these guys & farang pensioners, etc, inspite of what the law says, would that be to encourage more ATMs to retire in the Kingdom? I doubt that they are unaware that many of these guys, who probably don't even file a tax return in Siam, are tax evaders who should be paying Thai taxes.

there is also a law about not smoking in public area.

there is also a law about corruption, but thailand last 2 years reported that they are loosing 200 billion per year dut to government corruption.

there is also a law about talking on the cell phone while driving a vehicle, also helmet, speeding, etc. etc.

there is also a law about loud music coming from vehicles.

there are laws and laws that aren't enforce including demostrations closing streets and the airport and finally back to isg, there is a law about prostitution!

LBM[/QUOTE]Amen.

Also, am I the only one thinking that this phrasing is important?"A resident of Thailand who in the previous tax year derived assessable income under Section 40 [B]from an employment or from business[/B] Carried on abroad. ." To me that does not include pensions.

"Assessable income is income of the following categories including any amount of tax paid by the payer of income or by any other person on behalf of a taxpayer.

• (1) Income derived from employment, whether in the form of salary, wage, per diem, bonus, bounty, gratuity, pension, house rent allowance, monetary value of rent-free residence provided by an employer, payment of debt liability of an employee made by an employer, or any money, property or benefit derived from employment."

lbm[/quote]i've never owed any taxes to thailand & don't intend to. like i said, it would be too boring to spend 365 days a year here. two months usually does it & i'm ready to move on. anything under 180 days makes you exempt re non thai income.

but what are you trying to tell me here, that no one has ever been caught and punished for any of the things you listed or for tax evasion? or that they couldn't be? why take the risk, when you can go to various other wonderful asia destinations & enjoy a variety of pussy? no risk, no worries, no tax payments & no boredom sounds good to me. how about you?

We don't pay income taxes.

Something? Who knows what some are thinking these days. With the strength of the baht and the

Of our dollar etc. All of a sudden one guy wants to pay taxes can't seem to get it out of his pants when he should be thinking about using his tax payment of getting some pussy!

Maybe on paper people are getting mixed up resident with citizen? In the USA I'm like anything President or politician and it is no different here if the time comes I got to pay taxes. I'm going to lie and cheat and

Swear on the bible that ' I'm telling the whole truth and nothing but the truth " then I'm going to do what.

It takes to pay as little or nothing whatever it takes.

We are already paying more and they have a greater expectation from us that we are walking ATM'S,

Girls thinking that is one thing but when the Thai government starts thinking that I'm going to pay taxes when majority of the population doesn't. I suggest they bring some help when they come to collect from me!

[QUOTE=Paul Kausch;1422275]So Mr. Nic, why don't you continue to live up to the high standard you once set? You've read what Syzygies thinks of your older contributions to the forum. Why not continue to set an example?[/QUOTE]Paul,

People get busy and some of us have to work, so sometimes guys are too busy to write the really great entertaining long reports. Some get bored by the forum at times when few useful reports are arriving. Others just don't have the natural writing talent (I know I don't). I try to remember to just give information in keeping with the spirit of the forum, and hope also to encourage others to put in more field experience reports. Do I detect a recent improvement in site reports?

I better get back to work now!

Sure I understand work and time limitations. I put in more than a few hours a week and use ISG to kill a little time when I don't have enough time or am in the wrong place to go out and have fun.

And I'm not complaining about the lack of long entertaining reports. Those do take a special talent; and as you point out not all of us have the talent nor is English everyone's first language. It's the childish bickering and short meaningless posts that annoy me. My intend is to be an advocate for a quality forum. A few less stupid posts and a few more thoughtful posts would make a noticeable difference.

You may be right. The quality of the posts just might be improving.

You get a few who just mock 90% of the time or more and rarely contribute anything useful. I even avocated having guys try to think what the others readers might want, but some thought that was a stupid idea and instead avocate having guys rave on with any old stuff no matter how relevant or irrelevant, useful or not.

BTW, If you think there are some stupid posting on this forum, you should see how abysmal some of the other competition forums are. In my experience they really are bad, including Thai forums and also the western one W. The ones I tried, had no posts with any substance at all. Its was all just smart-ass posts from start to finish. When I had the audacity to ask how come, their superiority complex shone through. Who was this newbie posting reasonable information and asking others to do so too?

As an example, their "Annies thread" had just a lot of one liner posts!

I went to a few clubs.

Climax. Around 2am tons of girls. Went with a semi pro and she didn't like it but I saw a hot busty Thai that I would have taken in a heartbeat. 300 bhat entry I think but it came with a drink. My friend got in free. It was packed and it was a Tuesday.

Shock 39. Don't waste your time. It was dead on a Thursday around 1am. Horrible. Complete sausage fest. A ton of Indians dancing together and obvious homosexuals dancing. I thought it was a gay bar for a while. Damn can driver said it would be good. There were a few Russian girls but seemed more annoyed with the Indians then anything. They kept coming over to me but I wasn't feeling it and left for greener pastures.

Levels. Very nice. Good music better girls them the previous two places and drinks were 250. Great price for club I think. I saw a few stunners there but again I was with my gorgeous semi pro so I couldn't take.

Red sky bar. Central world. Very nice, very high. 300/350 drinks. Saw many groups and families so go there for view not really a place to pick up. I did see a few single girls inside but didn't ask them I'm sure sky high prices.

Nest- very nice. Had dinner there. Live music and Dj. Chill place maybe go there before going out for drinks maybe with a date. Took another girl there she was very happy with it.

Also went to thermae around 1 am one night. 10 guys there total. 60 girls there staring at me. Took home a busty cutie 2000 ST. Very cute, liked to kiss and wanted to give me hickies. Had to stop her. Good provider 3 holer. Wasn't traditional skinny Thai but not fat in by any means. Nice tits and ass and best of all pretty face.

[QUOTE=RBDave; 1423959]This post should probably be in General, and not MPs.

I would not bother stocking up in advance. Just wait for when you get to there, much easier and cheaper to get in Thailand.

And for everyone's information, you can get some STDs from BBBJ, not just BBFS. This is especially true at some places like a BJ bar where it is possible the girl still has some remnants of fluid in her throat. So she might not even have anything, but still may be passing it on to the next guy. Sadly, this is not second or third hand information.

So if you are doing BBBJ, you already are taking some risks. This is a risk I'm personally willing to accept, because the difference between CBJ and BBBJ is too great.[/QUOTE]RBDave,

You're absolutely right about this discussion being in the wrong thread, something I accept responsibility for. I think this started with a post in which I said I've always gotten BBBJs at Poseidon. So now I've move it over to the general thread.

You're also right about the risk of contacting an STD from a BBBJ. I thinks it's good you mention this as I occasionally run into guys are surprised when I tell them this. Some even insist I don't know what I'm talking about. When the message is important repetition is good.

The statement about stocking up on antibiotics before the trip was not intended to be taken literally. In that part of the post I was trying to convey that I am conflicted about bareback FS. I understand the health risks. I realize we are in a position of power relative to the SW and it is easy for us to coerce them into a dangerous activity they would prefer to avoid. And if they take the initiative the safe and ethical response is to insist on using a condom.

I think each individual can decide for himself if he wants to take the risks. I have a friend who does BBFS about 50% of the time. His rational is that the only thing he's worried about is HIV and if he gets infected, he's figured he's old enough and has already had a good life. And by the time it gets him, he'll be old enough to die of old age any how.

However, I'm married, so cannot take the risk for BBFS. Yet, I still managed to get something. My friend thought I was being a hypochondriac because the odds from getting it via BBBJ are really low, until I told him I had discharge."Oh, yeah, you got it."

When did I discover this? On the plane ride home! I went from being extremely tired to completely awake.

An odd thing happened as a result. I kept the email address of the last girl I was with, so I informed her to get checked. She freaked out. She was clear, but we didn't do BBFS, so I didn't expect anything. But now, we've been talking on the phone quite often and have grown quite fond of each other. And in the end, that may be worse for me than an STD.
